Work to create the first 'third generation' (3G)
synthetic pitch in the Borders in Galashiels officially got underway
yesterday.
The 14 week construction programme will see the first full size 3G
pitch and smaller synthetic training pitch be erected at the
Fairydean ground in the town.
The facility is a culmination of the ‘Netherdale - the Next
Generation’ (NTNG) which was set up in January 2010 to investigate
ways of fundraising to create the much-needed facility for the
Borders
